Folks from Louisiana could never appriciate an Accura at half price like short bald Nebraskans:):D;)


Watch your mouth Lane, I've got appreciation I haven't even used yet. At least I don'thave snow on my chrome dome for six months out of the year, and the neat thing about being bald in Louisiana is the skeeters tend to slide off your head when you're sweating. :D

Gander,

I have the .45 CVA Magbolt. It took me awhile to get it dialed in - I free-floated the barrel and bedded the action with Acra-Glass. After that, it's been a great shooter with sabots (XTP's, SST's & PR bullets). Several different combos all shoot around 1.75" at 100 yards. Best group so far has been the SST's with a 1.25" group. I know you shoot Powerbelts mostly - I've only put about 18 PB's through it - all the 225 grain hollowpoints. One group with the PB's was really good - about 1.5", (70 grains FFG 777), but when I started using FFFG and messing around with the powder charges, they started flying all over the place - looked like Ray Charles was behind the gun;)

smellhound, try a pack of 275's! Those SOB's were amazing out of that .45 Apex i had.
